Tour Femmes '26, Stage 6: Letting Them Go

Nikola Noskova (Cofidis) went out today on a mission.  While she didn't score points on the first climb of the day, she got maximum Queen of the Mountain points on the next three climbs thus far.  However, as her breakaway companions, Katrine Aalerud (Uno X-Mobility) and Loes Adegeest m(Lidl-Trek), upped the pace, she dropped away.  She had picked up a total of seven QOM points in the effort, but alas, the current Queen scored ten points on the day.  Still, she did increase her advantage over the erstwhile Maillot Jaune and Aalerud's teammate Sigrid Ytterhus Haugset.

Tour Femmes '25, Stage 6: Going Out the Back

As the peloton climbed the first Category 1 col of this Tour de France Femmes many found the pace a bit too high for them.  In fact, Celia Le Mouel (Ceratizit) and Emma Norsgaard (Lidl-Trek) came off the back during the climb before the official start of the Col de Beal.

Tour Stage Eight: Fighting

Daryl Impey started the day hoping that the Malliot Jaune would give him wings, and it may very well have, but they were no match for the wattage of Team Sky.  You and Daryl can just see the tail end of the peloton slipping out of his grasp along with the hard earned golden fleece.  He could take comfort that by the time Chris Froome attack the remaining peloton, it was comprised of only five climbers, one was Chris himself.  Sadly, at his point there is 5 kilometer to go on this climb, and there is still one more to go to the finishing line.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that can be yours by visiting my artist website.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of art from the 100th Tour de France.
